In all fairness, have you seen most line cooks?

I remember reading a “recipe” that was just a list of ingredients. The cook who was with me responded with a “figure it out.” Like, no, what the fuck? You’re gonna show me what to do.

Kitchen staff are such babies. It’s a simple recipe, just follow it and stop whining.
Anyways someone pour me a glass with 47 tsp of wine (optional) and 2 ice cubes (sexy)

1/2 teasp, exactly. An entire teasp would be WAY too much.

I worked in a high volume dining hall and all of the recipes were in a database. They were based off of small batches and then a program scaled them up for high volume. This ended up with recipes calling for 120 tablespoons or 89.25 teaspoons. We weren’t allowed to write in conversions for some reason so you had to do the math in your head. It taught me all my conversions real quick. I suggested once that we at least use metric since this was an engineering college but that request didn’t go anywhere.

Id shit can everything but the oil and garlic and then add an egg and make aioli. Because fuck whatever this is.

I worked somewhere where their bruschetta “recipe” was just a list of ingredients. It was always different depending on who made it, obviously.
I got promoted to kitchen manager when a new owner took over and I wrote an actual recipe and added salt and pepper. People liked mine better because it actually had a lot of flavor and it wasn’t soupy. They usually drowned it in balsamic vinaigrette so that’s all you could taste.
Ended up leaving that job because the new owner was batshit crazy.

You should put in a comma toward the end so it all sounds like they’re talking to you and it ends with “Topped with oregano, sexy”.

Nobody else even needs to be able to cook my recipes these days, and I’d still sort out proper unit conversions. This is a disgraceful mess. I’d be embarrassed to show it to anyone, much less a professional cook.

This looks like all of the recipes in the kitchen I’m now overseeing. Explaining to the owner that the recipes are fucked has been a losing endeavor. The kitchen I came from had every recipe in metric. It was heaven. Organized and efficient.
